On my knee's pulling out my hair
All that around me were nothing but misery and despair
Suicidal thoughts were running through my mind
My heart was shattered but every one around my seemed to remain bind
Blind to the fact I happily would take my on life
Crying myself to sleep almost every-night
Because I would just hide behind a smile and say I was fine
The misery turned to anger,the anger turned to rage
Emotionally it felt like I was trapped in a cage
Fear,paranoia and apathy
A far cry from the child that I was
The child was long gone and I felt nothing but loss
Grieving for things I had never even known
Abandoned all hope
And trudging a long a dark and lonely path
Yet I seen something a faint light in the distance so I struggled and I clawed and I pick myself up
But something has changed
I stopped looking outward looking for someone to blame
And I realised soon
The light wasn't far away
It come from within me
I had to become broken to become awoken
The path of enlightened was always within me
Had lessons I had to learn for me to fully see
The truth was never lost to me I know that now
Just had to look at my self and the world with a different perception
To fully appreciate to truly value the beauty of this lesson
The empty pit in my belly was no longer there
Spirit was always around me but this was now my time to be come aware
My soul had to become broken to gain deeper insight
To back in the love and glory of this empathetic light

River
I've been making changes everyday
Since I decided I didn't like the way
I felt and thought
And I only realized today
Seeing myself in the mirror, that I'm different
I speak different now
I smile different now
I think different now
I'm different

It's like, I'm different
But exactly the same
It's hard to describe
It's just I have so much less pain
Before i was stressed and
Hurting
Always disconcerted
But now that's lifted,
I feel loved, light, gifted

This is for all the hopeless, that see no point in
Continuing on in their transient misery
Well, this is my testimony
And I hope you take it to heart
And treasure it as a keepsake,
It serving to remind you and convince you
That your ailing heart
Won't ail forever
Things change, life gets better.

Always have I felt alone like I did not quite fit in
But I struggled and strived even when the world around me seemed dark and dim
Always I have I felt empty like part of me was missing
Like the home I knew I was destined for my spirit has never given in
The perfect balance to finally be complete
A connection above all else to sweep you off your feet
A burning desire to hold you close to me
Along with the satisfaction that we were always meant to be
The search goes on I will never stop till I am done
But at least I know within my soul that you exist and one day we will be one
This loving connection and in my heart you will always remain
To hold you through the good times but also be there to kiss away your pain
In our home together we will simply shut out the obscene
For the love that we shall share shall be decent pure and clean

I am homesick for a place I have never been
Where my spirit is high and my soul is clean
Away from the apathy and the resentment that I can only describe as obscene
I look to within as no outer energy can cleanse my aura
Mother Earth replenishes me and helps secure me
But keeps my crown open to receive his power
Living with hope I once couldn't cope
On my knees my soul had broke
I was lifted,guided and behold
He lead me to a word that saved my soul
The word is namaste the soul is Devine
giving me a new look on reality and helping my light shine
But I allow others to shine the light on me from time to time
I try to be free from fear resentment and live for now
For now I have been blessed with light and love
Love and light to all of you

Those around you in government convinced they act in your favour
And some with masks running around acting like they are your saviour
But truth be told they are one in the same
Convincing everyone that you should be looking for someone to blame
They promote indifference,separation,hatred and allegation
Truth be told they are one in the same
Promoting chaos,fear,panic and blame
Some say they do it in a religious name
The others say do not forgive or forget
The three Ls is how I must live my life
I have to remove all negative things and as such remove mental strife
Live,Love,Liberate offer a hand to the broken
It's about time now that the world is awoken
All lives matter we should be treated equal
Look not outward at the world
But to the child within us all and to the higher self
And let's all vibrate higher
For the true abundant loving wealth

— The End —
